This dataset provides detailed information on the 2019 Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) for Birmingham, UK. The data is available at the postcode level and includes the Lower Layer Super Output Area (LSOA) information.Data is provided at the LSOA 2011 Census geography.The decile score ranges from 1-10 with decile 1 representing the most deprived 10% of areas while decile 10 representing the least deprived 10% of areas.The IMD rank and decile score is allocated to the LSOA and all postcodes within it at the time of creation (2019).Note that some postcodes cross over LSOA boundaries. The Office for National Statistics sets boundaries for LSOAs and allocates every postcode to one LSOA only: this is the one which contains the majority of residents in that postcode area (as at 2011 Census).

The English Indices of Deprivation 2019 offer a detailed analysis of relative deprivation across small areas in England. The Education, Skills, and Training Deprivation dataset is a vital part of this index, measuring the lack of attainment and skills in the local population. This dataset includes indicators such as the proportion of adults with no or low qualifications, the proportion of young people not staying in education or training beyond the age of 16, and the performance of children at key stages of education. It helps identify areas where educational and skill development interventions are most needed, guiding efforts to improve educational outcomes and reduce socio-economic disparities.

From 1 April 2018, LTT replaced Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on residential and non-residential property and land interests purchased in Wales. The tax rates and tax bands for LTT vary depending on the type of transaction. Taxpayers must notify the WRA of all land transactions with a value above £40,000. There are also circumstances where certain lease transactions are not notifiable if they are less than 7 years in duration. When filing an LTT return, the organisation paying the return has 30 days after the effective date to submit and pay the return. This dataset includes estimates of LTT notifiable residential transactions received by the WRA by the close of 15 April 2024. Non-residential statistics cannot be reliably produced as identification of the correct deprivation area relies on the postcode to be provided for the property and land items as part of each transaction. As there is an inherent bias in the cases where missing or invalid postcodes are provided towards larger non-residential transactions, their results are not sufficiently complete or meaningful to be published. The dataset includes a breakdown by: - transaction type: residential only but (including sub-categories for main rate and higher rate transactions) - Deprivation area: areas that represent a division of Wales into ten approximately equally populated areas, known as deciles, using deprivation ranks attributed to the nearly 2000 small areas in Wales (called Lower Super Output Areas), as measured by the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (WIMD). WIMD decile (or tenth) 1 is the most deprived, down to WIMD decile (or tenth) 10, which is the least deprived. - measure: number of transactions, tax due, value of property taxed, average tax due per transaction and average value of property taxed - effective year (financial) WIMD ranks were updated recently (2019). We have used these latest WIMD ranks in this release. Each update of WIMD ranks is designed to last for around three to six years. When we first published this analysis last year, we used 2014 WIMD ranks. There is a relatively small proportion of residential transactions where the postcode provided for the property and land items is missing or invalid. This means that the deprivation area cannot be allocated. For comparability, the area totals shown in this dataset therefore relate only to those transactions where the deprivation is known, and for that reason will not match the Wales total shown in other datasets.
